Bone and Air
This is not a performance.
You are not an audience.
Please follow the instructions to complete the experience.
The volume of your voice is proportional to the size of the insect.
The order is from left to right.
When in doubt, dance in silence,
as if silence existed.
Bee - sing “Mmmm”;
Ladybug - sing “O”;
Longhorn Beetle - click your tongue as many times as you want;
Butterfly - say “I deny”;
Snail - exhale deeply.
Bone and Air is an audience participatory visual and sound installation inspired by the idea of the juxtaposition of bone conduction (within the human body) and air conduction (receiving sounds via the ears). The audience members are invited to make certain sounds through the piece according to the graphic score as an ensemble to create a spontaneous heterophony that is unique each time.
